I was thinking the same thing. What kind of fullback weighs 198 pounds?

Mankins needs to get healthy, quick.

Hey, it's been a while since a vet OL retired in camp! Now it really feels like the glory years.
I was thinking the same thing. Is this the third or fourth time? Scarnecchia must do something to those guys we don't know about.
Huh...I had a strange feeling he wouldn't play on the Patriots this year but I didn't see this coming.
The worst case OL scenario for opening day would still be a solid, athletic, young OL IMO:
Solder-Thomas-McDonald-Connolly-Cannon
-Mankins isn't ready
-Vollmer isn't ready
-Waters mysteriously never shows up (doubtful)
-Koppen's decline leads to McDonald overtaking him
I am not surprised by this whatsoever. I had written gallery off the minute we signed him. I have also written off koppen for about two years now. I thought it was a good thing he went on ir last year. Not that i wish injury to anyone, but it was in the teams best interest imo. I am also hoping mankins stays on pup. I personally feel that mankins is by far the most overrated player on this team. The best line would be solder, connoly, wendel, waters, volmer. With thomas, mcdonald, and cannon as the backups. My only concern is the ot position because of volmer's health and three tackles just seems a little light.

The line you suggest would be frightening to think about except for the fact that Dante Scarnecchia is the line coach and Josh McDaniels is the OC.
Donald Thomas has some solid experience for a 26-year-old. What do we know about Nick MacDonald other than he's big 6-4, 305 and 25-years-old?

"Martin was cut by Green Bay on March 2, 2011 and then signed with the Giants on August 13, 2012."
WTF?! We just signed a guy who in 10 days or so is gonna sign with the Jints?
I want Kraft to get the Commish to fine them a #1 pick for this chicanery :rocker:
